where is that coming from because i see china coming back a little, maybe europe's done going down, we seem to be a little bit stalled. somebody's building something around this world. >> i think it's a matter of jabil being very competitive in the markets that we serve and having sufficient diversification so that if one part of our business, for instance networking or telecommunications may be going through a lull or a slower period with government spending and business spending, capital spending down, we have some other parts of our business that are doing extremely well. you mentioned some of the mechanics business we're involved in which we call our materials technology group. that has nothing to do with electronics so we don't have to sell any electronic hardware for those businesses to perform well. parts of our business really are a reflection of the economy and other parts of our business are growing very robustly. so i'm very hopeful for the balance of the year and, you know, i think the company is diversified enough to take advantage of whatever opportunities are out there.

the iphone's not selling well in china. something i heard today. we heard they don't have the same carrier sponsors. samsung is loved over there. that means numbers may come down again. why not take them down, do it simultaneously with taking the price target down, particularly one that's become an absurdity in the high 700s. that's exactly what one analyst did today, cut the price target and the numbers, which were too high. and that frightened people. my take on apple, i am not dogmatic, people, but i'll give you my story. my charitable trust owned it for a long time. one of our longest held positions. we did some selling about 90 points ago. why? because the stock had gone up so much that we had become the apple fund. so we took some profits. i confess to also being worried that the company lacks any new omg products and that could dim the company's long-term prospects. but we're holding on to the rest of our position in the trust because i think apple's a good investment that's inexpensive, even after the analyst numbers we got today. can't tra
